Who is doing the work
Timothy Stewart collects every sample, signs every chain of custody, and delivers every result. There is no dispatcher and no rotating technician. If you call, you get him.
Before StewCrew, he spent seven years in United States Air Force Security Forces, including work as an investigator, where evidence chain of custody was the job. He then spent three years at Blue Origin building flight hardware to ASME standards. Both taught the same thing: follow the procedure, document every step, and do not hand off anything you have not checked.
